The hype
The staff are lovely and the river views are unbeatable, but the property feels worn out and in desperate need of the refurbishment that is currently causing noise.

Защо хората я обичат
- Stunning views of the River Mersey from upper floors
- Prime location next to the ferry terminal and Liver Building
- ARK Health & Fitness center with an actual indoor pool (rare for the area)
Бързо резюме: A tired waterfront veteran that relies heavily on its views while struggling with renovation noise and a concerning food hygiene rating.
Преглеждано от @nicshomex: I snagged this £99 stay and couldn't believe the value. Waking up to River Mersey views and having a swim before a full English breakfast made our weekend. It’s not ultra-luxury, but for a budget city break in Liverpool, it checks every single box.

Reality check
The 'spa' is often described as tired, with peeling paint and cold water, and the exterior grounds have been flagged as unkempt.
- You are attending an event at the ACC or exploring the docks
- You want a full-size gym and pool on-site
- You prioritize a room with a view over modern interiors
Чистота и поддръжка
5
- Housekeeping: Inconsistent. Some guests report spotless rooms, others find dust and missed trash.
- Bathroom hygiene: Grout and sealant often described as 'grubby' or showing mildew. Water pressure is good.
- Maintenance: The building is showing wear—peeling paint in the pool area and scuffed furniture in rooms.
- Linens & towels: Standard hotel quality, generally clean but not luxurious.
- Odors & scents: Common complaints of 'damp' smells in the pool area and hallways.

Често задавани въпроси и скрити съвети
Всичко, което наистина трябва да знаеш, преди да резервираш.
Is the pool actually open?
Yes, the ARK Health & Fitness pool is open, but reviews frequently mention it looks 'tired' with peeling paint and cool water temperatures.
Does the hotel have parking?
No. You must park at the NCP garage across the street (Old Hall Street). Guests do not get free parking; expect to pay around £17 per day.
Is breakfast included?
Usually not. It costs ~£17.95 per person. Given the recent 1/5 food hygiene rating, we strongly recommend eating elsewhere.
How far is the city center?
It's about a 10-15 minute walk to Liverpool ONE and the main shopping areas. The immediate area is the business district (quieter at night).
Can I bring my dog?
No, this property is strictly no pets allowed.
Is there a hidden resort fee?
No resort fees, but a new 'Liverpool Accommodation BID Charge' of roughly £2 per night may apply.

The 'White Bar' is often dead; walk 2 minutes to Ma Boyle's for a much better atmosphere.
- ✨
Ask for a 'Business Class' room upgrade at check-in; they often grant it for a small fee if occupancy is low.
- ✨
The 107 Old Hall Street entrance is less windy than the riverside entrance during storms.
5 неща, които трябва да знаете преди да отидете
💡The food hygiene rating hit rock bottom (1/5) in mid-2025—a massive red flag for on-site dining.
💡The 'River View' can sometimes just be a view of the ferry terminal roof if you are on a low floor.
💡There are only two guest elevators for 194 rooms, leading to long waits during morning rush.
💡The exterior of the building and surrounding pavement is often flagged as grim and unkempt.
💡You can hear the Mersey Ferry foghorn clearly from river-facing rooms (charming or annoying, depending on you).
